Duncan Firstly - The class that RBTI offers for 7.1 is soooo worth it. There is so much that is new in this version, it's hard to absorb all of it and the class is the best way to start.
All forms and reports can be converted. The forms and reports are actually stored in a different table than in 6.5, so they're not converted the same way as going from 6.1 to 6.5. Copies of them are converted. The original stays as is, leaving it available in 6.5 while you are upgrading. This is very helpful if you're going to convert one app at a time and want people to work in both versions. There is a reference topic in the help files for 7.1 that addresses conversion issues. Pay particular attention to obsolete commands. There are new ways of doing old things, so "converting" applications isn't necessarily the best approach. I would use the conversion as an opportunity to break out the wish list. There are so many new things, you're going to want to redo most of what you have anyway.
